State College Board
Outlines Reasons for

Friday, January 10, 1947

The Board of Trustees of State
Colleges jast night gave the “enor-
mous expense” involved as the res-
son for its action In turning down
last Friday by a reported 4 to 3 vote
petitions for establishment of a lib-
eral arts course at Rhode Island
State College.

The first public explanation of
the motives for the majority vote
was issued by John F. Brown,
chairman of the board, and one of
those whoa voted down the pro-
posal.

He gave the board's position in
a letter to Roswell S. Bosworth, Jr.
of the editoria! staff of “The Bea-
con,” undergraduate paper at State
College, a copy of which he sent
to the Journal-Bulletin. In his let-
ter, he listed the reasons for the
action of the trustees voting “not

Senate Asks Governor
To Take Action

[In immediste fo the
negative decision of the board of
trustees of this college, students
and porents alike are on the move
to bring about a reconsideration
of the negative stand which has
been taken by the board,

The Student Senate, along with
the Sachems are presenting to Goy-
ernor John ©. Pastore a proposal
signed by every member of the stu-
dent body calling for the A, B. or
B. S. Degree, and stating that it is
the responsibility of the State gov-
ernment to provide this opportun-
lity: It also states that an “A. B, de-
gree can be given * * * with a mi-
nor change in the course offered
(now).”

Along with this unanimous sup-
port of all State students has come
a letter to the Beacon from the
president of the Patrons’ Associa-
tion, Mr. Walter E. stat-
Ing that ‘Neither the Patrons As-
sociation mor the Alumni Associa-
tion intend to stop here and with
the help of the students, T believe
we can accomplish cur purpose and
at the same time increase the in-
terest of the general public to see
to it that our State Colleze has all
of the advantages of like institu-
tions of other states.”

The petition, which will appear
at the governor's office early this
week, is the outcome of a unani-
mous move by Sachems to sponsor
this degree which is in great de-
mand throughout the student body.
Although it originated in the meet-
ing of these members, the propo-
sal was passed onto the Student

degree is given. Also on this list
is every state college and univer-

reason why the course cannot be
omitted temporarily until a plan
acceptable to all quarters can be
adopted.

Also brought out by students
who had attended other colleges
prior to the war was the method by
which governing groups’ had
awarded the arts degree. As an
example, Massachusetts State Col-
ege adopted the degree only as late
as 1939. At the time there were
considerably less students en-
rolled in the courses there than we
have at State at present, but the
degree was granted and considered
adequate at the time.

munication sent by President Wood-
ward to the Chairman of the Rhode
island Tax Commission, now mak-
ing a study of finances of Rhode
Island, he stressed most emphatic-
ally the great need of funds for
the courses in the technical field,
which also will involve great ex-
penditure of funds.

“The position of the board mem-
bers voting against the granting of
the degree was concerned principal-
ly with finding sufficient time in
which to discover the attitude of
those changed with the responsibili-
ty of securing and administering
the funds of this Stale, as to how
far they felt the taxpayers of Rhode
Island were willing to go in financ-
ing the future growth and develop-
ment of Rhode Island State Col-
lege. At a meeting previous to the
one at which the vote on the grant-
ing of a Liberal Arts Degree was
taken, the Board voted to appoint

HELP THE CAUSE |Anyway, were all wondering if be the main feature of entertain-

American students and professors participate in World
Student Relief through the World Student Service Fund, an
agent for the people of today in the relief and rehabilitation |
of students in Europe and Asia. |

In 1945, the steady participation of Jewish students in
WSSF was formalized at American universities assuming co-
sponsorships with the other national student organizations
sponsoring WSSF. The four Christian groups that are now
organized in the United Student Christian Ccuncil as the
United States section of the World’s Student Christian Fed-
eration, Student Service of America, Inc., and the Hillel Foun--
dations comprise the responsible sponsorship of WSSF.

The governing body of WSSF is the Genera] Committee,
composed of representatives appointed by its sponsoring and
cooperating organizations, with a certain number of persons, |
including students, elected as members at large, by the Gen-
eral Committee.

WSSF was reorganized in 1945-46 on a regional basis,
with a small national staff, with seven regional offices, part-—
time American traveling secretaries, and foreign students
brought to the United States for limited periods of speak-
ing in the colleges. Officers, staff workers and members
of the sponsoring organizations give generously of their time
and talents to the leadership of WSSF and to the conduct
of the campaign. |

In 1945-46, 810 colleges and universities contributed
$408,960.67. This amount was not at al] commensurate with
either the universal needs of students or with the potential
insight, imagination, compassion or capacity to give of the
American students and professors.

The WSSF campaign will continue on this campus
through Wednesday, January 22. A quota of $500 has been |
set for Rhode Island State College. Solicitors representing
the Interfaith organization will contact everyone during the
next two weeks. Many of us have unthinkingly joked about
the people in Europe and Asia, Their situation, living with
few of the barest necessities, was brought home forcefully
in the assembly speech by Mr. James Glasse. Through the
World Student Service Fund the students of this college can
share their food and money. GIVE GENEROUSLY when |

“Basic aeneatane was the
subject at the first meeting of the
R, L Boat Club sponsored Shore
School held last Monday.

After the reguler business meet-
| ing, Charles Shock, a senior mem-
ber of the club discussed nomen-
clature in reference to small sail-
‘ing boats and particularly, ding-
hies. He distributed charts and
blueprints to each member to il-
'lustrate the talk.

The shore school is an oppor-
tunity for any student interested in
Sailing and boats to learn basic
principles, rules, and other infor-

matches with the Rhody sharp- | mation related to sailing. Therefore,

shooters this season include Pres- |
byterian College, Feb. 1; Oregon |
State, Feb, 15; and Virginia Military
Institute, March 1, All these teams
were added to the already heavy
schedule during the Christmas va-
cation.

all students are invited to attend
the meetings which will be held

last week.

Brown, who has at the helm a
new coach this season in Web Ew-
bank, has not fared too well on
paper at the time of this publica-
tion, having dropped three straight
games before finally turning back
MIT to the tune of 62-49. The first
three setbacks came at the hands
of Connecticut, 65-44; Harvard, 61-
48° and Dartmouth, 47-34.

The Bears, however, are much
better potentially than their record
attests, and are operating under an
entirely new system this year,
Adding to these facts that State's
famous rival is always out to “do
it” to the Rams in addition to the
familiar color that usually crops
up when these two clubs meet,
everything points to a lively con-
test all the way.

In the two meetings between the
schools during the regular season
last year, the Keaneymen topped
the Bruins twice, 76-55, and 69-67,
with the second game turning out
a real thriller. In the post-season
charity same played at the Provi-
dence Auditorium before the Na-
tional Invitational Tournament,
the Rams also walked away with
another verdict, 72-52.

In St. Joseph's of Philly, the
Rams will get a firm test when
they take the floor at Convention
Hall. To date the Saints have a
very good record, having won et
tilts while dropping two. Their
two setbacks came at the hands of
fast-stepping opponents also, the

RAMPAGING

By John Pallotti
The State Rams defested the
at

firat few minutes of play, but sud-
denly the Hams shooting went
wild. The Wildcats took advantage
of this opportunity and not only
tied the Rurm, but took o seven
point lead. At half time the score
was 32-31, with the Wildcats on
top. As the Rams left the dressing
room ffor the second half, one
could easily see that they were
ready to play the type of ball that
they are capable of playing.

The “boys in blue” scored 57
points In the second stanza, with
Ken Goodwin leading the parade
gathering a 28 point game total.
Hats off to Jackie Allen, the boy
who has taken three terrific spilis
in two games, but comes back every
time to lead the Keaney attack,
also to Ken Goodwin, who scored
25 points and was the highlight of
Tuesday's game.

The Bruins of Brown University
will offer Rhody’s next basketball
competition. The Brown forces this
Season are not as competent as the
squads of yesteryear; however, the
annual home and home tilts with
the Bruins are always exciting. The
Rams defeated Brown in three con-
tests last season with scores of 76-
55, 69-87 and 72-52. The 69-67
classic, played at Marve! Gym was
one of the most exciting games of
“freeze” exhibited by Ernie Cal-
verley was the deciding factor in
the Bruins defeat. Brown Univer-
sity sported a five game yictory-
fifteen game defeat record,
and this year the indications are
that the College Hill basketballers
will not better their standing. The
Bruins are usually primed for the
State game, and the Keaneymen
will undoubtedly be pressed to the
closing minute of play.

sion to come with General Electric was
the knowledge that at G.E. he could con-
tinue his studies in electronics engineering.

Dick had grown up with electronics. He
had operated his own amateur radio station
when he was 14, and at Minnesota he had
specialized in communications.

the average cost of maintaining a
